Not every trip we take rockhounding is successful. Today was one of those days. We always try to explore new areas and today we explored an area we had never been to before. Although we didn’t find any rock treasures it wasn’t a complete loss as the scenery was beautiful and we got lots of exercise.
The entire area we searched was nothing but igneous rocks. Normally we like to explore areas that are near large areas of igneous rock as there are often nice areas of agate or jasper to be found near them. On this walk, the igneous rock simply never ended and we didn’t see any agate or jasper.
